Lost and Found || JINHWI

20

Daehwi sat on the bed having his knees up to his chest while being wrapped around by the given blanket. Minhyun watched afar afraid that he'll scare the younger again. It was a quiet room, Daehwi wasn't going to speak, Minhyun always been wanting to meet him properly so he decided to speak up.

"Your name is Daehwi right?"

He asked receiving no response of course, he ignored that and continued on.

"I've heard a lot about you, I didn't think you had impacted Jinyoung's heart this much as his previous lover."

Minhyun spoke which Daehwi then remembered back to when he discovered the note and overheard Jinyoung's suffering.

"He lost Jihoon through an accident."

Daehwi said quietly, Minhyun glanced back at Daehwi still surprised that he talked back.

"Only because of me, Jinyoung gave little to no attention to Jihoon while searching for me.."

He continued as Minhyun listened carefully, he got up from his seat and went next to Daehwi.

"It's not, from what you've heard isn't right. Trust me, he didn't lose him because Jihoon was given no attention. They both were in an accident where Jinyoung wasn't injured from it. Because of this, that is why he came back out of that event more protective."

He explained as Daehwi listens well curious of the story since he was given no access to the outside world when he went back home.

"Since you came across his mind, he knows that you were being abused. Its why he wanted to find you, just so he can protect you from harm and not let you end up as the same fate as his late love."

Minhyun sighs then realized he let everything out instead of Jinyoung doing that.

"I shouldn't even be the one to tell you this, sorry."

He apologized quickly and stood up then walked to the door. Seeing nurses running passed the door, he turned down that direction to see Jinyoung slowly making his way here pushing the nurse out of the way including some doctors.

Daehwi watches Minhyun after hearing rushing footsteps after the door opened. He climbed out of his blanket and went to the door frame peaking his head out to the other side. Seeing Jinyoung down the hall, he couldn't help but to let tears fall again. Minhyun grabbed his shoulders as he was about to run to him, Daehwi glanced back as Minhyun stared at him for a second. He let go and spoke up to him.

"Go for it."

Daehwi nodded then turned to go to Jinyoung, Jinyoung saw the person he was looking for. He lowered down to one knee as he opened his arm for him. As if they signaled everyone to get out of the way, Daehwi landed in his embrace successfully without having to bump into anyone. The two hugged tightly not wanting to be separated no more. Jinyoung's hand rubbed the back of Daehwi's head as he rests his head on the shoulder.

"Thank goodness that you're okay.."

He mumbles as he tries to not cry next to the younger. Daehwi only tighten his hold around Jinyoung as he buried his face in the sleeve of his arms.

"Don't scare me like that anymore.."

He responded pretending to be mad at Jinyoung, Jinyoung only chuckled at the statement and they continued to hug no caring about those watching them.

Months passed, Minhyun was with Daehwi as they waited outside of the hospital for Jinyoung to walk out. Daehwi's injuries wasn't as bad as Jinyoung, he ended up staying at Minhyun's cafe and working in Jinyoung's place. Let's say every visit that Minhyun made for Jinyoung, they've only talked about the business and Daehwi's condition. Minhyun and Daehwi were sitting on top of the hood of Minhyun's car. Minhyun was playing his phone as Daehwi's legs only kicks around in boredom. He glanced at the hospital exit in hopes of seeing Jinyoung walking out. Growing impatient, he laid against the hood covering his eyes not even minding that parts of his stomach is exposed. Time passes, Daehwi hadn't moved an inch. Not till someone grabbed the bottom of his shirt and pulled it down covering the exposed spot.

"Don't expose any part of your body to anyone but me."

Daehwi moved his arms slowly as the sunlight blinded him. He looked at Jinyoung, who recently spoke, before shyly laughing.

"Since you're out, let's get you home okay? Everything at your place is cleared up so you should be good to return."

Minhyun stated as Jinyoung nodded, the two got off the hood and went to the doors. Daehwi going to the back seats as Jinyoung took the passenger side. Belts buckled, the ride then begins. Most of the ride there was quiet and rather boring. Minhyun turned on some music to keep the other two somewhat entertained. As the music plays, Daehwi reaches over to Jinyoung's shoulder and laid his hand there. Jinyoung responded by holding onto the younger's hand tightly. The ride ended short after, Daehwi and Jinyoung got out as Minhyun insisted to go back to the cafe alone. They ended up waving at Minhyun before turning to go back in their shared house. Daehwi jump onto Jinyoung as Jinyoung let him and end up carrying him around. They laughed happily with one and another. Jinyoung went to his room and fell onto the bed letting Daehwi loosen from there.

"Ah this feels a lot better than the hospital's."

Jinyoung says as he finds his comfort as Daehwi only chuckled at it. Jinyoung turned to Daehwi and rested his hand under his chin. They stared at each other before Jinyoung slowly leaned closer. Daehwi's face burned and reddened as he saw Jinyoung's face close to him.

"Y-Yah!"

He said partially shouting as he pulls back from Jinyoung's face. Jinyoung laughs at the scene in front of him before getting a grip on Daehwi's backside of the head. He held Daehwi well as he got on top and leaned down to catch Daehwi's lips. Sounds easy, reality, not so much. In the end, the two wrestled over each other till they grew exhausted. So Jinyoung doesn't get what he wanted, but he did get a cuddle pillow to sleep with. Daehwi rested his arms around Jinyoung with his head in the crook of Jinyoung's neck finding comfort and sleep peacefully. Jinyoung returns the skinship and lightly kissed Daehwi's cheek then held on tightly as he would lose something valuable.

The End
